•The board of directors
of the NRTG announces an audition call for actors and actresses for the second
production of the 2011-12 season, "The Crucible." The organization will
audition those interested at 7 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 7 and 8,
at the Ellicott Creek Playhouse, St. Edmund Campus, 550 Ellicott Creek Road,
Tonawanda.

This Arthur
Miller drama has roles for men and women actors and actresses, along with high
school-aged girls. The 1953 play is a dramatization of the Salem witch trials,
which took place in Massachusetts in 1692 and 1693, and is on the required
reading list of many area high schools.

Those
interested in auditioning will be asked to read from the script. The production
itself is slated for November at the newly renovated theatre. For further
